Vancouver Canucks Season Preview | Quinn Hughes, Elias Pettersson, Thatcher Demko &... who else?

The Vancouver Canucks have the three core ingredients for any good team in captain Quinn Hughes on the blueline, Elias Pettersson at center, and Thatcher Demko between the pipes. But do the Canucks have enough on the rest of the roster to support their dynamic trio? Things got cleared up a little in the summer with the buyout of Oliver Ekman-Larsson, and a full season of Filip Hronek figures to bolster the back end quite a bit. But if things don’t go well, how long will their best player’s patience hold up? What is the biggest storyline surrounding the Canucks ahead of the season? What was their biggest offseason move? Who is their most important player? Who is a player on the verge of a breakout? And what’s at stake if this isn’t a successful season for Rick Tochhet and the Canucks? All that and more on our Locked On NHL Season Preview.
